Lakers got a much needed win against the Hornets tonight as Kobe led the team with 29 points to surpass 30,000 career points. Jordan Hill had a nice game off the bench with 9 points and 8 rebounds in 17 minutes. D'Antoni needs to find a way to get Hill more minutes.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Kobe Bryant scored 29 points, making him the fifth player in NBA history to score 30,000, and the Los Angeles Lakers snapped a two-game skid with a 103-87 victory over the New Orleans Hornets on Wednesday night.
Bryant entered the game needing only 13 points to eclipse the scoring milestone and did so with a short jumper late in the first half that was perhaps the least spectacular of his baskets, which included the usual array of soaring dunks, demoralizing transition 3-pointers and turnaround, off-balance jumpers.
